I remember Patty as a skinny little girl with super curly blonde hair. I think she loved having lots of siblings. She lived in town , as I did, so I walked to school with her sometimes. I remember my Dad picking her up for church a few times. I didn't know her as an adult, but it sounds like she had a large and wonderful family surrounding her. RIP Patty.

Charles and I knew Patty and Roland to be gentle and kind people many years ago. Patty always responded on Facebook with words of love and encouragement. I have missed her already. God be with you, Roland.

Patty was a feisty, kind-hearted woman who helped teach a terrified, and equally feisty, 21 year old girl how to be a Mom. She was my Mom for years and even after she no longer was legally, she still treated me like family and told me how proud she was of the way I was raising her granddaughter. She taught me that tender hearts are a curse and a blessing but to be true to yourself. She also taught me that you may not be able to rescue all animals but by God, you can try! She could give you a piece of her mind and the most genuine hug right after. You always knew where you stood with her. Her spirit is light and love. I'm a better woman, and Mother, for knowing her. Prayers to all her family and friends during this time.

She was my aunt and an amazing woman she was always there to help anyone she could. My best memory of her is when I use to sit with her and watch days of our lives and she would try to teach me to crochet. I miss her so much. She was an angel on earth and now an angel in heaven. Love you aunt Pat. Donald.
